It's that time of the week again, and I am back! Some of you may be wondering what happened to the Insider these last few weeks, well, I've been busier then usual with family visits and camping and other real life stuff...but, that was then, and this is now! Therefore we have listed all the major gaming happenings for you below, and remember, if you see something that you would like to be added to the Insider, or have a suggestion, simply drop us an E-Mail at The Insider!

Before moving on to this week's edition of the Insider, I would like to Congratulate two new additions to the rank of Forum Admin at the FileFront Forums! The two lucky buggers are:

Ensign Riles - Formally a SuperModerator for the Forums, Riles is the holder and collector of all information...if I had to guess, I would say that he is jealous of the interwebz and he is trying to out do it! Go ahead, ask him anything, I bet you he has a screenshot of it!

S.T.A.L.K.E.R - Like Riles, STALKER was formally a SuperModerator at the Forums as well, he is also the Site Admin for STALKERFiles, and a Network Admin here. STALKER is unigue, as he wishes with all his heart that he would have been born as a Canadian. I have never seen such an envious compulsion...it is to be commended!

On a serious note, these promotions were well deserved...enjoy boys!

CONGRATZ TO YOU BOTH!!

The staff of FileFront Network appreciates your patience and thank you during the technical difficulties that we have been experiencing lately. We are working through it to get it straightened out and we hope to be back to 100% very soon!

Half-Life: Cat-Life Beta Announcement
Originally imagined in 2003 as a mod for Half-Life, Cat-life has spent a great deal of time on hiatus over the years. After a long delay due to missing team leadership, the mod reorganized under current Team Cat-Life leader BiGToM. Yet the greatest missing component, a coder, remains absent. The biggest single set-back has been the cat's POV code. Now, with corrected code in hand, Team Cat-Life is able to wrap up other portions of the mod. With this news, the team has also announced a target date for the first stage of Open Beta testing...

Company of Heroes: Blitzkrieg
The central point of my mod is the introduction of tank crews who gain experience that is used for tank enhancements like new features etc. So the crews gets VET and not the tank. If a crew survives a tank kill and you get them home you can simply reassign it to a new tank, so no gained combat experience is lost.

Knights of the Old Republic II: Darth Nihilus - IMPROVED
Anyone who has played Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords knows that, for all of the build-up that goes on throughout the game, the fight with Darth Nihilus is incredibly disappointing. His Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, and Wisdom have all been given a boost, while Intelligence and Charisma have been left alone. Overall, this should make his attacks a bit more effective, while simultaneously weakening your own.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion: Runestone Village"Thirty years ago I settled in the remotest area of Cyrodiil I could find. I settled in the area of an old Nord rune stone, erected ages ago by some unknown artist. I thought I had finally found the isolation and loneliness I sought, there in the middle of the woods in nowhere. I was wrong. In the last years more people have found their way to my paradise of isolation and a village has grown up around that rune stone."

Jedi Knight III: Darth Caedus Skin Pack
Jacen Solo, son of Han and Leia, is popular enough of a character to have a bantha-load of books written about him or featuring him as one of the characters. At one point, or several points, he falls to the dark side, and becomes Darth Caedus. Now, Darth K-Diss, which is how I imagine his name is pronounced, has been reskinned off of the blondie Jaden model and put into our beloved game.
